well done!! 😉
if you like macro and nature watch my video 😉
Thanks for your question. Perhaps the following video will be able to help you further: canon.com.au/worldofeos/learn/getting-started/Definitions-of-aperture-iso-shutter-speed.aspx. Let us know how you go. Cheers, the Canon team.
my question is how can you know that you can use for example how he say in 1:35 when he said 1/125 to f11 . like how to how to know you can use those two together
Hey there, thanks for your question. A quick search for “Sunny 16 Rule” on your favourite search engine should help you out. Many thanks, the Canon team.
Mr. Bray, i still did not heard that sunny 16 rules, i’m only a begginer. you have any tuturial for this? thanks…
Hey there, thanks for your question. Have you heard of the Sunny 16 Rule? Perhaps you could start by using that rule. Let us know how you go. Cheers, the Canon team.
thanks a lot, Mr. bray can you give me the exact shutter speed, aperture, and ISO if i will shoot in sunny day, if i’m using manual. thanks.
Hey there, you can find it at our World of EOS website: canon.com.au/worldofeos/learn/getting-started/Using-creative-modes.aspx Cheers, the Canon team.
Canon Australia is my favourite team. i always hear “project area of this page”. i’m sorry but where can i find it?
It depends. Experiment with some of the modes to see which one suits you better. For a start, you would freeze motion with the shutter priority, when executed correctly. Cheers, the Canon team.
Tv would be the best for sports right?
very good
Cheers best tutorial I’ve seen!
Really great tutorial- detailed enough but easy to follow! Starting to feel more confident using my new 550d already!
It automatically ascertains what the ideal depth of field should be via all your camera’s focus points. Cheers, the Canon team.
thank you very much helped alot, but what does A-DEP do?
Excellent instruction. I am learning more everyday about my Canon EOS. Still learning how to use creative mode and need practice on how the settings apply to the different lenses I use. I am guessing you can’t shoot at 2.8 if you don’t have a lense that has that setting available. Love the tutorials. Thanks Di
Thanks Abby! :)
you guys amazed me..hahahhahaha you teach like my teacher when i was in college hahahahahhahaha
Thanks mate :)
The aperture that’s common on cameras are 2.8, 3.5, 4.0 etc. These numbers are in fact 1/2.8, 1/3.5 and 1/4.0 respectively. So technically, an f/2.8 gives a shallower depth of field than an f/4.0. Cheers, the Canon team.
@CanonAustralia : Did you just mention lower aperture for greater depth of field ? I had the impression that larger apertures mean greater depth of field. Pls correct me if I am wrong – I am just a beginner
So you can only change one setting at a time? For example, you can choose to change the shutter speed on TV but then you wont have control over the other things such as apparture etc for that particular shot?
Hi Canon Australia. This video is great but probably not useful for your average consumer who won’t be sporting a 5DMkII with a collection of L lens. Things like the EF 50mm 1.8 are great for the price.
He’s so passionate about what he does. I’d love to be like this one day.
lovely lenses…so expensive….one day! haha
Thinks he’s a sniper. What a goofball
Definitely – they are both L lenses and will have similar build quality. Feel free to check the lenses out at your nearest authorised Canon reseller. Let us know how you go. Cheers, the Canon team.
..would you recommend the 17-40mm f4L as a sub for that expensive 16-35mm?…
Great tips. Hope to go FF one day but got some nice indoor kids shots with a cheap Rebel XS and the nifty fifty. Have to start somewhere.
all canons most expensive lenses lol..
Very helpful! Please subscribe to my channel for more helpful videos & tips.
Great! Thanks, the Canon team.
ThankS! Im viewing tha website now .. I actually meant like a set up such as strobe kits, && softboxes but I guess thats not necessary since I see your video on speed lites
By light kit do you mean external flash? Check out our website here: canon.com.au/For-You/Speedlites – let us know if you additional questions. Cheers, the Canon team.
what light kit is the best for beginners?
why is the whole guide about children portraits?
Thanks for your comment. We believe it was the one with IS. Hope you enjoy your EOS 5D Mk II soon! Thanks for continuing to support Canon. Cheers, the Canon team.
nice video,im a canon guy myself and an aspiring photographer.waiting for my 5d mk ii birthday gift from the misis.and hopefully a 16-25mm f2.8 and a 70-200 f2.8 is usm as ive already got the other beast which is the 24-70 f2.8 usm.in this video what kind of 70-200 f2.8 was it?as he didnt mentioned if it was with or without IS?
this guy must have massive hands, those lenses look tiny.. but their not small
Thanks for the positive feedback! Cheers, the Canon team.
I love my 550D,and the cheap 18-55 IS mk I it’s very sharp if you know how to shot with it,great camera,good job Canon.
thanks
his pictures are amazing
Hmm is this video is about teaching people how to shoot, it maybe would be a better idea to talk about the lower end range of canon gear, not all the high end expensive stuff since those people wont be able to afford that. I understand that canon likes to sell their most expensive gear most though. Ill be running to the store to get me 2x 5D MKII, a 580EXII 24-70L 70-200 2.8L, 85L etc. Oh wait first remortgage my house.
Thank you so much. Can u suggest me any wide and zoom lens. I dint have much bucks to invest, any in range of 350$?
That’s a great combo – it will give you room for the telephoto range of our lenses. You might want to invest in a wider lens as well in the future. Let us know how you go. Cheers, the Canon team.
Thanx for the video. I am deciding to buy canon 550d with 50mm f1.4 and 55-250mm. I need to know should i go for this combo or should i buy some other lenses instead of this?
